Synchronization is a widespread emergent feature of complex systems. Here, the authors investigate the optimization of synchronization in phase oscillators with higher-order interactions, and find that optimized networks are more homogeneous in the nodes’ degree for undirected interactions, and for directed interactions they are generally structurally asymmetric, but can be symmetric, which differs from the pairwise case.
